Trainer Bio

Eamonn was a Trading Standards Officer with Cumbria Trading Standards from1986 to 2014 and is an experienced trainer in food standards. He was also the Lead Officer Food with Cumbria Trading Standards from 1999 to 2014.

Eamonn has sat on national food panels including the LACOTS Food Standards Group, which he chaired from 2006 to 2010. He was also the Food Standards Trainer, Food Written and Food Oral examiner for CTSI under the Trading Standards Qualification Framework (TSQF). He continues to be the CTSI Food Standards trainer for the new CPCF qualification framework. In his role as a Trading Standards Officer and more latterly as a Team Leader, Eamonn has provided training on a range of Trading Standards functions, both to colleagues and to other authorities.

He has subsequently provided food standards training across the UK, including Local Authorities, Trading Standards branches and to the Food Standards Agency (FSA) in England, Scotland and Northern Ireland. Eamonn's training is structured to combine a detailed knowledge of food standards enforcement together with a wealth of practical enforcement experience.
